Chapter 1900: with translation of chapter title

NO. 519：Accidents are inevitable.

We keep the title line as is? We need to translate the Chinese part after the number. The line includes "NO. 519：" which is part of the line.

On the chaotic battlefield, there is no truly safe edge; therefore, one must always join in.

The problem is, when to join.

Translate: "On the chaotic battlefield, there is no truly safe edge; one must always join in." Let's produce: "【2】 On the chaotic battlefield, there is no truly safe edge; one must always join in."

The problem is, how to join.

The more one opposes the gods, the more one needs to eliminate the information gap.

"【3】 The problem is when to join."

This is the feeling of the Vampire King who once let countless Angel-type Digital Beasts fall.

"【4】 The problem is how to join."

——

Just dash. We'll output "【5】 ——"

This feeling is innate, an inevitable imprint of information in the digital core and its way of thinking.

"The more one opposes the gods, the more one needs to eliminate information gaps." Let's translate: "【6】 The more one opposes the gods, the more one needs to eliminate information gaps."

It is also a truth verified through His long journey.

Whether it is constancy, the World Tree, or the Twelve Gods of Olympus attempting to construct a third god—Homer—by reverse-engineering knowledge from another world, all are practicing the omniscience that a god ought to have.

But gods are not perfect.

They cannot perceive existence beyond this world, nor can they turn this world's omniscience into omnipotence; otherwise, they would have long since turned all their sins into divine punishment, and it would be impossible for such profane things as the Bagra Beast and the Light Beast Fallen Form to exist.

Translate: "【8】 This feeling is innate, an inevitability of the information etched into the digital core and its way of thinking."

At least the latter has long been within its view, but the former…… the Digital World has scant records, while the Human World has plenty, though most of that also comes from another world.

Whether the Bagra Beast exists is a question, but it also knows that the Dark Knight Beast tribe has always believed in its existence and has been striving for it to this day.

"【9】 It is also the truth verified through His long journey."

It is just like the Demon God Beast tribe always believing that a Super Ultimate Demon God Beast will surely be born within the tribe.

At least the latter did indeed appear fleetingly in history, while the former is as lacking proof as a flower in the mirror or the moon in the water.

Even after years of sending subordinates to and fro between the Main World and the Dark Area, it had found nothing—until one day, the secret it pursued and another secret seemed to converge.

Long-term observers kept watch, and even it itself could not help but occasionally chime in, as the Light Beast Fallen Form spread an incredible rumor.

"【11】 But the gods are not perfect."

——At the base of the Great Sin Tower (Babel Tower) lies a seal imprisoning the profane World Tree, and it also attempts to challenge the fanatics of the Fallen Light Beast.

Although this rumor came out of nowhere and did not spread widely, relying on the scarcity of entertainment in the Dark Area and delayed information transmission, it trickled to the Vampire King's ears in sporadic mentions—but what does it matter?

For hundreds of years there had been no gain, and even the Beelzebub Beast's subordinate Dark Knight Beast had found nothing and even turned to ask for help; thus this sudden rumor, whether true or false, is worth a try, isn't it?

Translate: "【13】 At least the latter has long been within its view, but the former…… records of the Digital World are scarce, while records in the Human World are not few, though most of them are also news from another world."

But the problem also lies in this 'try'.

——The Fallen Light Beast is obviously not easy to approach.

Translate: "【14】 Whether the Bagra Beast exists——that is a question, but it also knows that the Hei'an Knight Beast tribe has always believed in its existence and has been striving for it to this day."

Its Demon King's Holy Hall, its patrol and defense are by no means low.

And it itself can be said to be impervious to persuasion.

After cutting off its prideful nature, it became even more a fellow who unpredictably switches between "fun" and "boring", to the point that even the Great Dracula Beast wouldn't consider personally infiltrating—such a move would obviously anger the other party and destroy the viability of the current relationship.

But it doesn't matter.

It is patient.

In order to minimize the gap between itself and the divine perception as much as possible, it has been waiting in seclusion for far too long; a few more years make no difference.

But who would have thought that, while waiting, humans would arrive.

The Hei'an region, which had always been unchanging like stagnant water, also began to change with the influx of human and human‑related data.

The later the time, the faster and greater the change became, leaving it with mixed feelings.

In fact, it doesn't mind the influx of humans' novel ideas and technology; indeed, it has been in contact all along and has always been quite interested.

But the influence humans caused, those changes with deeper meanings, make it unable to tell whether they are good or bad—like Digimon that accept human notions, demon kings influenced by human culture striving for freedom, or even those who simply sign contracts with humans and leave the Hei'an region, and so on. Watching the underworld that accumulates all digitized negative emotions, discarded data, and Hei'an power grow ever more colorful and lively, it is both an increasingly burdensome workload and yet also a myriad of secrets, making it happy while also feeling the approach of opportunity.

Soon.

It's about to arrive.

In this Hei'an region where variables are increasing, whether it's the secret of the Fallen Light Beast, the whereabouts of the Bagra Beast, or the day when the future of that not‑so‑capable but ambitious Dark Knight Beast is revealed, all become visible to the naked eye.

It firmly believes that every wait will yield a result, and that result indeed answers its trust and expectation.

First, the Fallen Light Beast easily transforms into its Satan form, launching an attack in the full sin posture of the Seven Deadly Sins as called by the Little Ogudomon, fiercely opposing the full‑force stance of the Royal Knights' twin blades, and then comes the historic descent of the Dark Bagra Beast.

This battlefield where the three great Hei'an Digimon that defy and blaspheme the gods gather together can truly be called a place where cause and effect converge, yet at the same time it is precisely a heaven and earth unseen by the gods.

Such perfection even causes the Great Dracula Beast, which has not gone all‑out in battle for over a thousand years, to feel its blood surge and issue an order to its legion—everything that had lain in wait here, and which was also transferred here by the Star‑Devouring Wings—:

"Open the feast."

The night‑banquet legion, composed of a large number of Undead‑type Digimon and a small number of Fallen Angel‑form Digimon, also possesses a prophecy passed down for a thousand years.

That prophecy proclaims desire; the feast overflows with blood; at that revel where the king can order a hundred taboos, the thirst that has bound everyone for thousands of years will be thoroughly satisfied.

And such a time is basically now.

The only problem is——

At the banquet imagined and constructed by the countless members of the night‑banquet legion, the king‑led everyone will become absolute hunters, and everyone will enjoy to the fullest the source of all that sweet vitality.

rather than being kicked to the curb by humans and their Digimon friends.

nor being covered in a black blob by an AOE from some monster or alien.

nor being slapped into the ground by some demon king that follows humans, evaporating on the spot without even a chance to dodge its chaos burst, not even leaving a Digi‑egg.

Although normally there wouldn't be a chance either.

But obviously, this was never part of the Vampire King's promised fantasy, nor will the king compensate them with the experience of a fish‑fry outing.

But if they ever manage to succeed even once, the taste of the strong one's blood they sample will indeed be a flavor they could never have imagined before.

Provided that what they suck is not a monster.

Monsters, however, come in many flavors: some have an exceptionally fresh taste, some are as painful as poison, some leave you feeling like you've drunk a tiny snack and then vomited, and the blood of individual monsters can even give you a radioactive experience; even if you are made of data, you cannot escape feeling the unlucky moment of a living body within the perfect rules.

Just don't look at how these guys' endings are mostly a humorous, foolish misery; when the smart ones among them start consciously picking soft persimmons to squeeze, and even begin cooperating in battle to hinder others, the night‑banquet legion, using blood‑sucking and curse‑type debuff attacks, will become a huge hindrance to both law‑enforcement and criminal sides.

Yes!

This is also why their situation has been less than ideal from the start.

The king never intended for them to rush to aid either side.

On the contrary, while the king's indiscriminate attack makes the situation even more chaotic, he himself, bearing countless radiant sigils, charges at full gallop on four legs toward the Light Beast Satan Form that is likewise charging from the opposite side against the Dark Bagra Beast.

On the chaotic battlefield there was no room for dialogue, so combat replaced speech.

Although this war is doomed to go badly for the Hei'an digital beasts, it hasn't yet come to the point of defecting in the king's name.

The vampire king considers himself to have seen everything clearly, and also has a plan that can preserve himself while retreating to the Hei'an region with maximum gain.

But carrying out that plan involves a lengthy series of steps, requiring it to squeeze the value and fun out of the toys before it can make a clean getaway.

But before that——

Then the former Gluttony Demon King's great cannon, which it never truly valued, will arrive, reminding it that there remains unfinished karma.

Immediately thereafter an uninvited guest appears—using a horrifying roar transformed into an ultrasonic attack to carry out indiscriminate AOE, while destroying more than half of the main base of the cult remnants exposed by the Dark Barrag Beast, and also dragging all surrounding Hei'an digital beasts into the Extreme Evil Belial of data destruction, all while brandishing an oversized katana!

Swish!

This is an exceptionally vicious knife throw, using the momentum of half a second after the ally's artillery fire to complete the prediction, blocking the space the Grand Dracula Beast had wanted to dodge, while he himself didn't even glance at the result, still staring at the location of the cult remnants' main base, with the light in his hand charged and ready.

Although he would like to keep some resources for convenient black‑on‑black, under everyone's watchful eyes it's obvious he cannot afford the slightest ambiguity.

Likewise unambiguous is the Barghest Beast. X accompanying Bi Ze, or rather the Beelzebub Beast. Storm Form!

In that moment the Grand Dracula Beast, ruthless, forcibly avoided the next second of the cannon blast by taking a blade to its left half‑body; he then flashed forward with four wings to appear before it, one claw grasping the resentful spirit blade that had begun to dissipate after leaving its master's hand, and with the remaining blade he ruthlessly stabbed down, while his other hand, gripping the cannon, was driven by Bi Ze's ruthlessness to press against the Grand Dracula Beast's cheek, half‑covered by its mask.

""

He didn't speak, nothing like his usual habit of spouting nonsense and pressure.

Whether it was because he had taken to heart his brother's constant reminder in combat talk that many words lead to loss, or simply because this was his first time participating in such a stimulating and chaotic battlefield practice, making him unusually nervous.

But it doesn't matter.

Because the reason he is allowed to fight by Aomo despite having combat experience inferior to that of the adult and even high‑school horse‑girl divisions lies in the consciousness correction that exists when he is fused with his digital beast partner; under this correction, even if he does nothing, the Beelzebub Beast can still be operated, and if he can act, all the better.

In the state of consciousness fusion, his thoughts will also be those of the Beelzebub Beast; even if his movements are not proper, they can be shaped into combat experience, which can be said to be the automatic mode of an action game guarding him, so there's nothing to worry about.

What ought to be worried about is the enemy that has caught their attention.

Especially those who have been mumbling for a long time, only now revealed to be using others as tools and even ordering their subordinates to attack both sides—truly the vampire king who has provided an excellent pretext for attack.
